Due to some scandals, the new UK Prime Minister is on the way to premature decline. This issue has led to the Labor Party’s popularity drop. Polls show that less than 30% of voters still vote for Labor, and Keir Starmer’s approval rating has fallen from +19 to -26 since winning the election. This article examines the downward trend in the Labor Party’s popularity over the past three months due to revelations and scandals.

The dire situation of the Labor Party since coming to power

Keir Starmer has been dealing with bad news since taking office on July 5. His government could not do anything to quell the far-right unrest at the beginning of August. However, their constant emphasis was that Britain must follow a period of severe austerity. Meanwhile, new cases are emerging of members of the Labor government accepting lavish private gifts. All these revelations have caused the Labor Party’s popularity to drop.

Consecutive defeats for the Labor Party

First, it emerged that Labor MP Lord Waheed Alli had an unrestricted house permit for the Prime Minister’s official residence at 10 Downing Street. People who are not employed there typically do not receive this license. It then emerged that Keir Starmer and his wife, Victoria Starmer, had been receiving gifts for months, including fashion labels for the First Lady and glasses and clothes for the Prime Minister. As is often the case, it was not just the gifts that turned into a scandal but the critical fact that they were not correctly reported.

Labor Party’s popularity drop due to the rent-seeking of members of the Starmer government

The media has now discovered the perks, gifts, and goodies from wealthy Labor donors to government members. Labor cabinet members have accepted gifts and donations worth £800,000(nearly €1 million) for personal use this year. The leading recipient of these gifts is David Lammy, the country’s Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Kier Starmer faces the challenge of declining popularity

The annual Labor Party conference was supposed to be a celebration of victory. Three months ago, the Labor Party won the parliamentary elections with a vast majority. But the situation today could be better. Opinion polls for Labor are at an all-time low, and Kier Starmer has sharply declined in popularity. The reason for this situation is the endless revelations about Starmer’s abuse of this position.

Revelations made against the new UK government

Some revelations include new glasses for the Prime Minister, new First Lady clothes, Taylor Swift tickets, and VIP lounges in the football stadium. Every day, new cases of scandals are published. Britain’s Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson confirmed that she had accepted a five-figure donation to celebrate her 40th birthday with journalists and lobbyists. She said on TV that this donation was for business purposes.

Actions of the Labor Party contrary to election promises

Two years ago, the then British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was forced to resign as Prime Minister. During the Corona quarantine, illegal parties were held at 10 Downing Street under his patronage. Johnson was ridiculed when he declared these events business meetings. The “PartyGate” scandal broke Johnson and destroyed the Conservatives’ credibility. The victory of the Labor Party was based on the government’s promise to put these conditions in order. Here, it was not only the issue of Corona laws but also the issue of dignity and decency.

Starmer’s preference for personal interest over national interest

When Starmer became prime minister, he promised to form a government that would serve. It hasn’t even been 100 days, and Labor is already creating scandals similar to Partygate. After its historic victory in the election, the Labor Party had the historic opportunity to show the UK how to stop the advance of the far right in Europe. He is now throwing this opportunity away for ridiculous personal gain.

Starmer became hated in the shortest possible time

A new poll has confirmed that British leader and party leader Keir Starmer has experienced an unprecedented drop in personal popularity ratings. According to the Opinium poll, his popularity has decreased from +19 to -26 percent since winning the elections. So Starmer has become more hated than any other party leader in the UK in a short period.

Starmer is less popular than Nigel Farage!

In the latest poll published by YouGov, Keir Starmer won only 27% of the votes in favor, against 63% of the votes against. This figure puts him below the leader, Nigel Farage. These figures are particularly significant considering the Labor Party’s overwhelming victory in the British general election three months ago, in which the Labor Party won 411 seats out of 650 seats in the House of Commons.

The declining trend of the Labor Party’s popularity compared to the Conservative Party

Other polls have confirmed the Labor Party’s popularity drop. In another survey by More in Common, Labor had a narrow lead over the rival party with 29% of the vote to the Conservatives’ 28%. This is Labour’s narrowest lead since More in Common polls began. The poll confirms the declining popularity of Starmer’s cabinet. According to the report, Labor had a 10-point lead over the Conservatives in the national vote share in the July general election.

Decline of the Labor Party if successive scandals continue to be exposed

In recent weeks, Starmer’s popularity has plummeted. The scandals of members of the Starmer government have led to the Labor Party’s popularity drop. The results of the latest polls in the UK show that the level of public trust in the Prime Minister has decreased. The 62-year-old man is under pressure due to various revelations about abusing his political position and party. The Conservative Party and other Labor rivals seek a chance to return to power. If the revelations continue, the Labor Party may not maintain political power in the UK.
